Description

All mothers are proud of their kids, but for Indigenous supermodel Samantha Harris, her success on the runway has earned her a "Samantha Shrine" in her mum's house.

Every photo shoot and poster was laminated and displayed with great pride in their home, and since Samantha got her start at 13, it's a pretty big collection. Samantha's childhood success stands in stark contrast to her mum's upbringing as a survivor of the Stolen Generations. It's their special relationship that takes centre stage in a book they teamed up to write, called Role Model.

It's a book about Samantha's rise to fame, and the family that kept her grounded along the way.
